Podgorica

Crossroads of entertainment and rest. One hour drive to the mountains and the sea, half an hour to Lake Skadar. Five rivers flowing under the city bridges. If your eyes are wide open, you will find a place for yourself.

You can choose between the natural and the urban sceneries. In summer you will probably prefer nature: the streets at the nearly highest temperatures in Europe – second only to Athens – will make you choose so! No reason to panic. If you do not have time to go to the mountains or to the sea, you can forget the tropical heat at one of the tourist objects by the rivers of Sitnica, Morača, Zeta, Ribnica. Everywhere, even on the Scutari Lake, you can find a quiet beach, a secret place, and enjoy the luxurious nature only a step away from the very centre of the city.
